Spectators: 35 (Terracing: 27, Seating: 8, VIP seats: 0) The mood of the audience was pleasant when Johannes Sulistyono made the kick off which started today's match. With his leg Ebieth Zamzam managed to avoid a goal in the 6thth minute, when PSI Candirejo's Mamiek Dollo fired away a shot with a lot of spin towards his right hand side. When Joshua Tanujaya fell near the penalty area in the 11th minute he thought he would be awarded a free kick. The referee ignored Keoerea FC's protests and gave Joshua Tanujaya a yellow card for diving instead. Mamiek Dollo fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 14th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Ebieth Zamzam having to interfere. The referee was alert and spotted a serious foul by Atang Kamajaya during the 15th minute. The player immediately received a yellow card. After 15 played minutes Keoerea FC got a freekick which was hit by Atang Kamajaya. In the 18th minute, PSI Candirejo's Hikmat Gantina dribbled the ball into the box and hit a shot with the outside of his foot, sending the keeper the wrong way. 1-0. PSI Candirejo's Hikmat Gantina got a good chance for a goal in the 22nd minute, but he totally mistimed the shot and it went over the crossbar. Syauqi Rumba's shot was meant for the net just under the crossbar, but Tarsan Sumardi read the situation well and was quickly in position to make a wonderful save in the 24th minute of play. In the 26th minute, Mamiek Dollo got an opportunity to score, but he didn't get a solid hit on the ball and ended up kicking it wide of the goal. In the 34th match minute, PSI Candirejo was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Aep Prastowo to maneuver through the defense. Syauqi Rumba fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 37th minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Tarsan Sumardi having to interfere. In the 40th minute of the match, Hikmat Gantina tried to roll the ball into the goal by the right post, but Ebieth Zamzam saw his intentions and got control of the ball before it passed the line.

The hometeam waved at the audience when it was time for Hikmat Gantina to strike the kick off in the second half. In the 54th match minute, Keoerea FC was awarded a freekick, the ball was picked up by Atang Kamajaya to maneuver through the defense. If Hikmat Gantina had kept his shot down it would have been a goal in the 56th minute. The ball went over the crossbar and out instead. 58 minutes into the match, PSI Candirejo's goalkeeper Tarsan Sumardi had to clear away a ball on his right side after a cunning shot by Syauqi Rumba. When Aep Prastowo was, once again, overly rough in his play he received his second yellow card and was ordered off the ground. 58 minutes had been played. After 59 played minutes PSI Candirejo got a freekick which was hit by Aep Prastowo. Syauqi Rumba could have scored with his fast shot on goal in the 67th minute of the match, but Tarsan Sumardi made a huge save. An unexpectedly hard shot by Johannes Sulistyono in the 71st minute of play forced PSI Candirejo's goalkeeper Tarsan Sumardi to throw himself to the left, to be able to save the ball. In the 73rd minute, Syauqi Rumba fired away a killer shot towards the goal that, to the delight of Tarsan Sumardi, passed just outside the right post. 74 minutes into the match, PSI Candirejo's goal looked a bit too open when Johannes Sulistyono came free, but Tarsan Sumardi reached the ball before it rolled over the goal line. Syauqi Rumba sent away a hard shot on goal in the 80th minute, but the ball went just over the crossbar and out. A very good chance. After 81 minutes, Ireng Kumbara mouthed his way into the referee's book. The tension between the PSI Candirejo and the Keoerea FC players grew even worse after the yellow card. After a rather tough play, PSI Candirejo's Ireng Kumbara got a free kick in the 81st minute. Syauqi Rumba fired away a screaming shot towards the goal in the 82nd minute, but the shot went just over the crossbar without Tarsan Sumardi having to interfere. When the match had gone on for 88 minutes, Toto Christiawan took a quick shot and it went in 1-1 without a chance for Tarsan Sumardi to make any attempt to save it. After a defensive mix-up in Keoerea FC's zone, Hikmat Gantina stole the ball and had only the goalie to beat. Ebieth Zamzam came out of the goal and Hikmat Gantina tried to chip the ball over his head. To his dismay, the ball went over the crossbar and out of play. Neither set of supporters seemed pleased with the draw, but both teams had played equally well today.
